GR8 Tech<\/a> is accelerating its presence in the MENA<\/a> region with a focused growth strategy and the strategic appointment of Sarkis Basmajian as Regional Sales Director.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As one of the fastest-growing iGaming regions, MENA presents immense potential, especially where demand for agile, tailored platforms quickly overtakes legacy solutions. With its Heavyweight tech and deep geo-specific expertise, GR8 Tech is ideally positioned to lead this evolution.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

With nearly a decade of experience leading sales and key account operations in iGaming, Sarkis brings deep regional insight and proven commercial leadership across Tier-2 markets. He will spearhead GR8 Tech\u2019s growth by forging strong partnerships and delivering locally relevant, high-impact solutions from day one.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cWhat excites me most about joining GR8 Tech is the clarity of vision. We\u2019re building the infrastructure for the next era of iGaming. MENA is evolving fast, and operators here need more than localization. They need strategy, speed, and serious tech muscle. That\u2019s exactly what we\u2019re bringing to the table,\u201d said Sarkis Basmajian.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

GR8 Tech\u2019s platform is already renowned for its geo-specific presets, from language and currency to payment integrations and performance optimizations, that adapt perfectly to diverse markets. Whether optimizing for low-bandwidth Africa or football-passionate Latin America, GR8 Tech\u2019s sportsbook DNA and flexibility make it a natural fit for MENA\u2019s market.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cOur goal is simple: expand smart, launch fast, and deliver Heavyweight performance wherever we go,\u201d said Yevhen Krazahan, CSO at GR8 Tech<\/strong>. \u201cWith Sarkis leading our regional efforts, we\u2019re set to unlock our platform\u2019s massive potential across the Middle East and North Africa.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The strategic hire marks the next milestone in GR8 Tech\u2019s mission to power iGaming growth across various markets with Heavyweight infrastructure, local-first execution, and proven regional expertise.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
